This episode is brought to you by the CEO Room.
Six weeks, six CEOs, working through the confidential decisions that keep you up at night. Each week pairs a private session with Phil and a class session where one CEO brings their hardest problem to the group. When the six weeks end, your class keeps meeting monthly as part of the alumni membership, with access to Phil between calls and priority invitations to the annual CEO retreat.
Applications for the next class are open now. Visit listentophil.com to book a call.
What if your team isn’t slow — what if they’re waiting for you?
When a business can’t move at market speed, the problem may not be urgency or capability; it may be that too many decisions are queuing for the CEO.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
- How to spot where decisions are really waiting — and why the queue often leads back to the CEO’s calendar.
- Why delegation without clear boundaries transfers uncertainty instead of creating speed.
- How to use the Find, Frame, Free model to distribute authority without losing confidence or control.
Look at the last ten working days, find one recurring decision that didn’t genuinely need you, and redesign it so it never has to wait for you again.
The Partnership Playbook is the podcast for leaders who want to grow with clarity, create leverage through partnerships, and lead their teams with meaning. Each episode gives you practical insights drawn from two decades of building and backing companies, coaching CEOs, and closing high-value partnerships across industries. You’ll learn how to scale yourself as a leader, choose partners that help you grow faster, and turn trust, alignment, and first wins into momentum that lasts.
